Thrill of the Hunt...Without the Thrill (open)

Jess loved her twin sister dearly.  She really did, honest.  That being said, there were times when she needed time away from Jennifer, and this was one of those times.  Better yet was the fact that the hunting grounds existed.  She'd discovered their existence in high school.  Back then she'd mostly just sat in the forest and revelled in the wilderness.  Now she actually used the hunting grounds to hunt once in a while.  Of course, she still sat in the forest sometimes.  No need to deplete the wildlife after all.  She smiled as she crouched with her recurve bow.  She liked the silence of it.  Normally she didn't like when people used it because it could lead to the animals suffering.  Which is precisely why she learned the best places to aim, and had a pistol strapped to her hip so that if she didn't hit it right, she could put it out of its misery quickly.  That being said, for a forest blessed with game, there wasn't much today.  She sighed and strapped her bow to her back before sitting on a nearby log and taking out the leather pouch with her lunch.
